Goldie's Alice in Wonderland palette

I start being more attentive to Goldie's Alice and Wonderland collection towards the end of last year. Since Bath and Body Works no longer carries cosmetics ( At least at the stores near me), I started shopping for great deals on-line and "click"ed onto Goldie.
I think the Alice in Wonderland concept is adorable, but not in the Hello Kitty way. Moreso you are exiting adolesence and graduating from Bonnebell to Clinique. But this is so entirely cute, its not embarrasing enough to not whip out and show while touching up. Since the palette on the website says it suits all skin tones, I'm tempted to try the "A" palette since it seems warmer than the other. But this was a refreshing surprise, I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Badgley Mischka- NY Fashion Week Spring '08

My fashion week coverage has been dismal I must say. Maybe it's because I haven't found anything striking. But I did come across a surprise for Spring- Badgley Mischka.
The collection is reminiscent of a summer in Capri or somewhere on the Mediterranean but the look includes that bold lip that has captured me from Proenza Schouler's Spring '07 runway show... but only better. While PS's Look was 60's surfer with the zinc-ish lips, BM comes full bloom with a fresh Fuschia color that looks to flatter all skin tones. The look over all is minimal with touches of Mascara on the top lashes and spring rosy cheeks.
Tom Pecheux was the Makeup Artist at large and the lipcolor was courtesy of MAC Cosmetics. On Macpro.com, it states that they hope that MAC "will package it this spring so we can all get that strong pink mouth that looks great with almost no other makeup". Hmm.. could Badgley Mischka for MAC be on the horizon??

The Look of LAMB- NY Fashion week Spring '08

NY fashion week kicked off yesterday and a few faves marched down the runway. Rag and Bone and LAMB. But what I like the most is the "look" of the models. Heather Marks looks gorgeous! The Sixties is definately making a return for the Spring and so is the heavy eyeliner.

Let's see what NY Fashion week has to offer us.

Oh, must I make my announcement now... no. it's far too early. I've got 25 days to go. But sometime between then and now.. you will know ;).
